About GCAS College Dublin

The Global Centre for Advanced Studies (originally incorporated in the USA in 2013) is the academic brand of GCAS College Dublin Limited, a company incorporated in Ireland in 2018.

GCAS College Dublin Limited is accredited within the Woolf Collegiate Network, offering EU-accredited degrees. As a higher education institution uniquely co-owned by its faculty and graduates, this cooperative ownership model reflects our founding commitment to democratizing education and ensuring that those who teach and learn have a genuine stake in the institution’s mission and future.

As a registered Irish company, GCAS College Dublin Limited operates under Irish and European law, providing our students with the protections and quality assurance standards required of accredited EU institutions.

What makes GCAS College Dublin Limited unique is our ownership structure. Unlike traditional universities controlled by boards of trustees or shareholders seeking financial returns, GCAS is co-owned by the people who make it what it is: our faculty and our graduates.

When you graduate from GCAS, you don’t just receive a degree—you become a co-owner of the institution itself. This model ensures that our priorities remain aligned with our educational mission rather than external financial interests.
